Flexion joins Entrepreneur Breakthroughs: 2025 Year in Review

Madison, WI — January 26, 2026 — Flexion will take part in Entrepreneur Breakthroughs: 2025 Year in Review, a monthly convening hosted by Catalyst that highlights breakthroughs emerging from its Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EIR) Office Hours. The virtual session will take place on January 28, 2026, bringing together education leaders to reflect on the forces that shaped EdTech over the past year.

At the January session, Rick Giese, Vice Chairman and Chief Growth Officer, Flexion, alongside fellow industry leaders and past Milken–Penn GSE EBOC winners. The discussion will examine how generative AI, federal policy shifts, and evolving market dynamics influenced education innovation in 2025, across areas such as personalized instruction, tutoring, college advising, and workforce readiness.

Entrepreneur Breakthroughs creates space for candid conversation about what it actually takes to move ideas from early insight to real-world impact. Rather than focusing on polished outcomes, the series centers on the decisions, constraints, and adaptations that define the innovation journey.

Why this conversation matters to Flexion 

We believe meaningful progress in education happens when practitioners share what they’re learning, openly and honestly. Entrepreneur Breakthroughs aligns with Flexion’s commitment to learning in the open and supporting leaders who are building practical, mission-driven solutions in complex environments.

Flexion partners with mission-driven organizations to design and deliver adaptive digital solutions that evolve alongside changing user needs, policy constraints, and technical realities. Through its work across education and technology, Flexion sees firsthand the importance of feedback, collaboration, and reflective learning in driving sustainable impact.

Participating in Entrepreneur Breakthroughs allows Flexion to contribute its perspective, learn alongside peers, and support an ecosystem that values thoughtful experimentation and real-world outcomes.

We’re proud to be part of the conversation and can’t wait to connect with others pushing education forward.
